A very comfortable cottage ( we were a party of three), and in a very convenient location close to the facilities of Aberfeldy town. We appreciated the games room with the table tennis table which kept us occupied when the weather was not ideal for outdoor activities.

This house is in a great location and a good size. It feels as though it is a work in progress. A is a traditional building that has character and the furniture is in keeping and comfortable. It just feels like some upgrading of the paint/wallpaper and a review of what it provides (eg lots of knives but only a few forks in the cutlery drawer and mostly mis-matched) would be a benefit. It did feel homely and we enjoyed our stay.

A great base for our short trip to Perthshire. great location, near to town centre and also opposite the park which was great for the children to visit, with ease. They enjoyed the games garage too and that would definitely be a bonus in poor weather. Luckily we had brilliant forecast and we were able to go on lots of walks from the doorstep and not far afield. The crannog centre was a great experience which we will return to. Plenty of room for us all and all of the amenities we needed for self catering.
